Farm and Garden Notes. Fully old, matured, good-sized hens, over a year lay the largest egg. We do not believe that it is a mistake in any direction to advise farmers to grow more fruit. There are many ways of keeping good, sound, ripe onions. The great point Ls to keep them dry. Cleanliness in food and water is in¬ dispensable hog to the health of swine. A is not necessarily an unclean beast. It is an axiom that any plant, however valuable, growing where it is not of economical value, is as worthless as any weed. It is a distortion to most horses to check them up higher than it is natural for them to carry their heads. No one is deceived by such style. About a tablespoonful of liquid am monia mixed with a gallon and a half of water and sprinkled ori plants and soil is coming into use in England for de¬ stroying slugs. Old hogs fattened on corn or other grain exclusively, have very solid pork, in fact, too solid for good eating. Fruit aud vegetables, fed systematically, are good It is for them. not that corn is not good for stock, says the Lire Stock Journal, that we hear so much about its deleterious ef¬ fects, but rather because it is not fed with discretion. The ordinary farmer who raises more than one breed each of horses, cuttle, sheep, swine or poultry, is apt to lose money; and if he does not raise the best of , each kind, he does not make so much money as lie might. What is the value of a cow that makes ison 100 pounds to of that butter makes per vear 2f>0 in compar-! year? It one is 10 100. pounds per work in testing as to and By a few years’ dairyman weeding out the I poor cows, any ran have a dairy that will average 250 pounds of butt( r, | or more, to the cow. The plan of a farmer for securing large crops is thus stated by him: “I tell my j men to harrow the ground until they I think it is harrowed twice as much as it ought to be, and then I tell them it is I not harrowed half enough.” Thorough i p..I«ri M tlo„ of ..ho .oil i. more import- ; ant than any other crop.

In a few days, according to thc writer, all thc rats will be gone. It is the opinion of Sir J. B. Tjiwcs, whose opinions upon sueh matters are en¬ titled to and receive much weight, that the best time to cut grass, cither for hay of or ensilage purposes, is when the majority grasses arc in flower. He thinks nothing is gained by waiting longer, his reason for such belief being that in the case of most of the grasses the seed formed is exceedingly light and the food which it contains is exceedingly small. Professor J. Hayes Panton, of the Ag¬ ricultural College, of Ontario, suggests remedies for potato rot, which we con¬ dense as follows: Dig as soon as brown spots appear. Put in cold, dry place af¬ ter all affected digging. Grow early varieties. Burn stalks. Use only good seed. Get seed from unaffected districts. Don’t plant in a field in which rot occurred the eurevious year. Avoid planting upon a heavy clay soil, but prefer a light and dry one.

It in important to have good quarters, not too warm and tight, but dry and plenty of room.

It is a mistake to keep cold sheep in a small, close house; even m weather they naturally require ex¬ ercise in the open air, and should have it m fair weather; but in stormy weather they there should be kept under cover where is plenty of room and pure air. A Persian quack. Dr. Wills, an Englishman residing in Persia, the accepted an invitation to dine at house of Mirza M- Kahn, a begun wealthy grandee, The meal had hardly when one of the guests, S Kahn, entered u pon a long list of his nil ments for the benefit of the English physician. It is the custom in Persia to consult a medical man wherever one is met. This would-be patient finally stated that, for the relief of lumbago, he had been in the habit of inserting a needle beneath the flesh of his back every morning, but that, on under the previous day, it had disappeared tne skin. The physician, after examining the flesh which S-Kahn had uncovered, told him that it was probable that the needle had been lost and had never been in his flesh at all. At this the patient was most indignant. Europeans!” he cried; “Ah, you Why Agha “you will never believe. Ali, the surgeon, says it is there, and he is going to extract it by the mouse.” “By the what,?” “The mouse. Don’t you understand that?” “No. What mouse?” doesn’t “Ah, science! Ah, Europeans! He understand the action of the mouse 1” A chorus of explanations now brought out the supposed fact that a live mouse being the needle, bound on the back of the patient would leave by some mysterious process, his flesh and be found in that of the mouse. “What kind of a needle was it?” asked the Englishman. The confidential valet produced a packet of ordinary sewing-needles, de¬ claring used for that no different ones were ever that purpose. Presently the native surgeon made his appearance, and after listening carefully for the needle with an old stethoscope, the wrong end of which he applied to the general’s person, declared that the bit of steel “But, was please deeply God,” seated. said he, science, and “by my by the help of the sainted martyrs, Houssein and Ilassan, I shull re¬ move it.” He carefully opened a box and dis¬ closed a poor .little mouse tied by the feet with silken threads.

Presto, pass! S-Khan, the needle has left you and is now in the poor Agha mouse’s body!” Ali sprang up and would have rushed away, but he was seized and held while his box was opened. A needle was indeed there, previously slipped under the loose skin of the mouse’s back. It was compared with the others in the khan’s pockets and found to be half an inch too short.

A royal ball at Athens is graphically described by Miss Fearn, the daughter of the American Minister, who says: The King gave the signal and the dancing the began. One very amusing feature was manner in which the round dances were waltz begun. When the first bars of the in the were middle played an aide-de-camp stood of the floor and called to the people to make a circle, on the edges of which stood the couples about to dance, each dancer grasping his partner firmly by the waist and preparing at the earliest possible moment to plunge into the maddening rush of the deux-temps, which is danced here exclusively, and which is perhaps a trifle less rapid than the galop. The Queen gave the signal and started round the circle with her partner; then the Crown Prince, and then all the other couples followed, one right after another, around and around, faster never turning and to the left, but on and on, entertaining faster, each couple evidently but one notion—the one which characterizes that exciting sport of a slide on the ice, when there is onlv a burning the anxiety lest you should swallow up man ahead of you, or iu turn be swallowed up by the man behind you.
